. July 9, 08.30 clock: At Wimbledon are played on the so-called Monday Manic all knockout matches in men and women. Of the top 15 German tennis players are only Angelique Kerber and Julia Görges here. Both are favored in their games.

After the surprising arrival of Alexander Zverev, the two best German tennis players, Angelique Kerber and Julia Görges, play for the quarter-finals at Wimbledon on Monday. A look at the day with all the knockout stages of the ladies and men:

Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam tournament, which indulges in a sideline without play. And the only one in which all the eighth finalists are played in one day. In addition to the two remaining German professionals, Angelique Kerber and Julia Görges, spectators will also be able to see other players such as defending champion Roger Federer, French Open champion Rafael Nadal and World Premiere Serena Williams.

Angelique Kerber – Belinda Bencic:

The re-emerging Kerber is the favorite in the match (14.00 German Time / Sky). However, she has not won any of the three official WTA duels with Bencic, 21. Only the last meeting at the Hopman Cup in Perth decided the Kielerin for himself. Bencic was number seven in the world when he was a teenager, but was sent back by wrist surgery, back and foot problems. "She plays very flat, she hits well, it's never easy to play against her," Kerber said. With a win, the 2016 Wimbledon finalist would have at least reached the top-eight round in all three Grand Slam tournaments this year.

Julia Görges – Donna Vekic:

Görges is the star favorite here, It's number 13 worldwide (Görges) against number 55. Croat, 22, has defeated US Open champion Sloane Stephens en route to the last sixteen years. Vekic is coached by Torben Beltz, who made Kerber the Grand Slam champion and led them to the final at Wimbledon two years ago. Görges has never surpbaded the top 16 in any of the four Grand Slam tournaments. Bad Oldesloerin, 29, has just become a friend with the grbad game.

What's going on elsewhere?

Defending champion Roger Federer is as favorite as Frenchman Adrian Mannarino as Rafael Nadal is against Czech Jiri Vesely, However, the Spanish world-first Nadal rank has not reached the quarter-finals since the 2011 final. The women are also watching Serena Williams, who meets Russian Jewgenija Rodina in the duel between two mothers.
